I had my surgery the 21st of October and I have lost about 20lbs since then-I haven't had any real problems I am getting about 50-64oz of Water in daily and about 43-69grams of Protein I should be getting in 70 but somedays are harder than others. the only problem I have is that I dont get a full feeling at all I just measure out my food and eat it slowly and dont drink with my meal I just hope that is what i am supposed to be doing- this is all a learning expierence for us and I dont think that you are going to get 100% of all the stuff you need to get in at the beginning there is just no way, but I just keep on working on it, and everyday is a new day if you dont do good one day with your protein or liquid intake there is always the next day- oh and the protein I get is called nectar they have all kinds of flavors and you can mix it with water or crystal light I they have it at GNC or Vitamin Shoppe. ~Peggy

Hi my surgery was the 21st of October and I am feeling great lost 18lbs already,but the only problem I have is I am having horrible mood swings where I get so irratated/frustrated I lash out at my family by yelling-today I was rude to a girl that is supposed to be my friend because she has been getting on my nerves lately- Help I want to know this is normal and also what I can do to help to stop it Thanks, Peggy

Hi everyone, I am 5 days post op and my belly hurts still I am not sure if it is just gas and air or what- I am on full liquids right now and trying to get all my liquids-yesterday was my first full day back at home and I did okay with it i know I didnt get in the full 64 oz- I drank a vanilla Protein shake yesterday morning and my stomach was just bubbling does that mean i'm lactose intolerant? I haven't had any nausea though I ordered the powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury protein today though so that way I can add the unflavored to Jello and crystal lite and such- I guess I just thought this was going to be easier for me and I feel like I am having such a hard time getting in the liquids and protein I need . thanks for listening Peggy
